The Muppets Lew Zealand as Uncle Orville

This detailed Limited Release (LR) pin from the "The Muppets Disney Park Day" series features the delightfully eccentric Muppet, Lew Zealand, humorously depicted as Uncle Orville from Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress attraction. Lew Zealand, renowned for his unique boomerang fish act, first debuted in episode 310 of The Muppet Show in 1978, quickly becoming a fan-favorite character. Here, he takes on the role of Uncle Orville, the grumpy character perpetually in the bathtub within the classic Carousel of Progress, an iconic Walt Disney World (WDW) attraction that originated at the 1964 New York World's Fair and showcases the evolution of technology through the 20th century. The pin was released on February 3, 2026, at Walt Disney World as part of a larger "The Muppets Disney Park Day Mystery Collection (WDW)" which includes 10 unique designs, pairing various Muppets with beloved park experiences. This entire series is a celebratory component of The Muppets' 70th Anniversary, commemorating Jim Henson's groundbreaking work which began with "Sam and Friends" in 1955. The crossover theme makes this pin particularly appealing to collectors of both Muppets and Disney Parks memorabilia, offering a blend of nostalgia and humor.
